HEAT SINK WARNING:
This amplifier requires an adequate heat sink to prevent
damage. Maximum case temperature must not be
exceeded. The package is designed to provide ade-
quate heat transfer to proper aluminum heat sink.
The AVP514 and AVP598 amplifiers provide
nominal output power of 20-22 Watts. Each
amplifier uses control circuitry to ensure safe
startup. The amplifiers have an external pin for TTL
on/off control. On/Off Low or High can be specified;
standard is Off/Low. The AVP514 uses the AVP598
output power module, but also includes preamp and
driver stages to provide ~ 40 dB of overall gain.
Heat sinking is required to keep the case
temperatures within a safe operating range. A thin
layer of thermal grease or HiTherm (for example the
HT-2500 series) helps provide a low resistance
thermal path between the case and the mounting
surface. The mounting surface should be metal with
heat conduction of aluminum or better. Heat sink
size depends on whether fan-driven air cooling is
used, or if only convection is used.
Maximum Tj of both amplifiers is 200°C.
